Featured Project Name:
Out of the Box Savannah Carriage
Featured Project Location:
Savanah, Georgia
Featured Project Completion Date:
4/23/23
Role in Featured Project:
Lead Designer
Featured Project Description:
I chose to start with the square because it was my way of connecting the row house back to the Oglethorpe plan. My project was an exploration of different shapes like the circle and the square which have an idealistic reliance within architectural history. The project expresses movement overtime by rotating and inserting platonic shapes and connecting them with materials like brick, wood, and concrete. This juxtaposition of elements and materials is what brings the design together.
